Let me begin by saying that many artists I've followed for a long time released music this year, and several were underwhelming in my opinion. Others, very overrated due to their TikTok/social media popularity/virality (rather than actual quality), but despite all that, I was able to grab a top 10 list that ultimately wasn't that much in the spotlight. Here's mine!

  1. AURORA - What Happened to the Heart?
  2. Hayley Mary - XS
  3. Florrie - The Lost Ones
  4. Kylie Minogue - Tension II
  5. Paloma Faith - The Glorification of Sadness
  6. Bonnie McKee - Hot City
  7. Bastille - &
  8. David Kushner - The Dichotomy
  9. Kerli - OVERSOUL
  10. Dua Lipa - Radical Optimism

Yup, I was expecting to have Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, Brooke Candy, Katy Perry, and Charli XCX the most of all, on this list, but honestly their albums this year were not enough to make it.

Ultimately, it's not all so bad. With Bonnie McKee giving us THE maximalist bright pop record after a decade, Florrie delivering us a brilliant full studio album after several delays, and AURORA with her most sublime album to date (+ I went to see her live this year and it was the best night of this year!), I'm happy to close this year with some pop bibles that will definitely become classics.

Whoa, that's a very extensive list! Tbh this year I was in a very throwback mode and aside from my top 10 and a couple other projects, I was revisiting older releases instead. But omg it must've been hard to narrow +100 projects to this!

In the past 2 months I found the musical output to be particularly weak, I did not find many new songs which I LOVED, just some I liked. And lately the best songs I discoverred were made by AI. But this song stands out to me this year, I really like it.
